Since the days of long-running BBC comedy ‘Educating Archie' in the 1950s, seldom have we heard a ventriloquist on the radio
Nina Conti is Britain's leading voice thrower and has been all round the world with her puppet Monkey, Gran, Dog and others.
Not only is Nina an expert at her craft, she demonstrates that she can think on her feet, chatting to the audience and her two guests: physicist Jim Al-Khalili and Wagner from ITV's The X Factor.
She also invites her audience to bring puppets of their own, which she brings magically to life.
This is a celebration of the ancient craft, and a chance to hear one of Britain's funniest women at the top of her game.
Producer: Bill Dare
